Tang Jingming and Tang Wu’s grandfather was a military man, and both their fathers were also in the military.
Although they did not choose this path for themselves, they grew up immersed in this environment and had an inherent deep respect for the national flag and the nation. Both of them solemnly and seriously adhered to the military courtesy without any perfunctory attitude.
As the national flag was raised, Shi Mei looked down, her tears uncontrollably falling.
But when she turned her head, she suddenly collided with a pair of deep, dark eyes.
Shi Mei shivered and instinctively raised her hand to wipe her eyes.
Shi Lingyan was looking at her and extended a handkerchief to her.
Shi Mei sniffled and did not accept it, "Thank you."
Shi Lingyan lowered his eyes to look at her, his voice very soft and faint, "Missing your dad?"
Shi Mei’s heart skipped a beat, and she abruptly looked up at him.
Shi Lingyan’s eyes were deep, bottomless.
Shi Mei forcibly tugged at her lips, "I have severed ties with Shi Xuebai."
Shi Lingyan seemed to slightly curve his lips, "That quickly."
The rising sun cast down blistering rays.
Shi Mei looked up at him, his gaze was too deep, as if it could suck her in.
Shi Mei looked away, "Uh-huh."
"Let’s go out," Gao Lian came over, saw Shi Mei’s red-rimmed eyes, paused, and asked, "You okay?"
"I’m fine," Shi Mei turned around, "Let’s go."
Shi Mei quickly walked out a few steps ahead, while Gao Lian turned to Shi Lingyan with a warning tone, "She doesn’t like you anymore. And I heard it was you who initiated the divorce. You thought she was a fool, and now that she’s recovered, it’s none of your business anymore."
Shi Lingyan raised an eyebrow.
Gao Lian also looked at him, then turned and caught up with Shi Mei.
Shi Lingyan silently laughed.
This Gao Lian, really acting quite the protector.
Only, he was probably going to be disappointed.
Shi Lingyan’s eyes darkened as he watched Shi Mei’s retreating figure, and after a long while, he slowly followed.
Everyone planned to climb the Great Wall today, so everyone wore sports attire and sneakers.
They came to the Mutianyu Great Wall.
"You’re going up too?" Gao Lian looked at Shi Lingyan, full of surprise.
"Working out," Shi Lingyan said impassively.
Gao Lian was taken aback but didn’t say anything.
Ye Tiao, hearing this, nudged Shi Mei, "Aren’t you going to persuade him? His body hasn’t fully recovered yet."
Shi Mei glanced back at Shi Lingyan and quickly looked away, "Let him be, let’s go. It’s been a long time since we’ve been active. Let’s see who reaches the top first."
"Sure!" Ye Tiao loosened up her limbs, "Let’s go!"
Shi Mei turned to Tang Jingming, tugging at his collar, "Come on, let’s compete."
Tang Jingming, still not over his previous fears, upon hearing her, asked, "Compete in what?"
"See who has the worst stamina. The loser buys dinner tonight." Shi Mei’s face was eager as she turned to Gao Lian, "Come on."
Gao Lian chuckled lightly, "I’m participating too? Isn’t that bullying?" Official source is ⓝovelFire.net
"Yeah right, he is a detective."
"Detective my foot," Tang Jingming spoke up, pride in his voice: "Our Brother Shi used to be a soldier, right, Brother Shi?"
"Brother Shi would never join such a boring game," Ye Tiao knew Shi Lingyan well, the man was proud and aloof, "Let’s go."
Shi Lingyan’s eyebrow arched, "Who said that?"
At that, even Shi Mei was surprised.
Shi Lingyan was typically aloof, seldom participating in group activities, and considering he had only recently woken up and his body hadn’t fully recovered, wasn’t it too taxing for him to join such an activity?
